A network engineer needs to design a network that can efficiently handle varying types of traffic, such as voice, video, and data. What technology would be most suitable for such requirements?
- QoS (Quality of Service)
- VLAN (Virtual Local Area Network)
- MPLS
- Frame Relay
QoS (Quality of Service) technology is most suitable for designing a network that can efficiently handle varying types of traffic, ensuring the prioritization of voice, video, and data.
For a small network with a stable topology, which routing method is generally more cost-effective and simpler to manage?
- Default Routing
- Dynamic Routing
- Hybrid Routing
- Static Routing
Static routing is generally more cost-effective and simpler to manage for small networks with stable topologies as it involves manually configuring routes.
Which device is used to connect multiple devices within one local network, often used in homes and small businesses?
- Hub
- Modem
- Router
- Switch
A switch is used to connect multiple devices within one local network, commonly used in homes and small businesses.
________ is a WAN technology that prioritizes data packets based on labels instead of IP addresses.
- MPLS (Multiprotocol Label Switching)
- VPN (Virtual Private Network)
- DNS (Domain Name System)
- DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol)
MPLS is a WAN technology that prioritizes data packets based on labels instead of IP addresses.
In which routing method are routing decisions made based on pre-determined, static routes that do not change unless manually updated?
- Default Routing
- Dynamic Routing
- Hybrid Routing
- Static Routing
In static routing, routing decisions are made based on pre-determined, static routes that do not change unless manually updated.
Which QoS feature is used to manage congestion by controlling the rate at which packets are sent into the network?
- Traffic shaping
- Packet filtering
- Congestion avoidance
- Link aggregation
Traffic shaping is a QoS feature used to manage congestion by controlling the rate at which packets are sent into the network, preventing network congestion.
What is the process called that enables a cloud service customer to increase or decrease resources as needed?
- Cloud Scaling
- Elasticity
- Resource Provisioning
- Cloud Expansion
Elasticity is the process that enables a cloud service customer to increase or decrease resources as needed.
In BGP, what is the purpose of the AS_PATH attribute?
- Identify Neighbors
- Define Preferred Path
- Prevent Routing Loops
- Advertise Local IP Prefixes
The AS_PATH attribute in BGP is used to prevent routing loops by tracking the Autonomous Systems through which the route has passed.
The _______ time is the interval during which STP listens to and learns the network topology before transitioning to the forwarding state.
- Blocking
- Forwarding
- Learning
- Listening
The listening time in STP is the interval during which the protocol listens to and learns the network topology before transitioning to the forwarding state.
The process of adding a VLAN tag to frames on a trunk port is known as ________.
- VLAN Encapsulation
- VLAN Framing
- VLAN Tagging
- VLAN Untagging
The process of adding a VLAN tag to frames on a trunk port is known as VLAN Encapsulation.
